Description	Path of the Fury and the later re-issuance with new material and a full prequel novel as the omnibus In Fury Born are stand-alone science fiction novels by David Weber covering the life and times of sympathetic female protagonist Alicia DeVries.The original Path of the Fury opens with Alicia DeVries having been in retirement and resettled to the frontier with her extended family, whereas in the new novel she lives at home with her family and progresses from school girl to marine recruit through specialty training and participates with distinction in an interstellar war; the prequel climaxes by detailing her later war experiences after she joins an elite special forces unit of 'Drop commandos' where she becomes a bona fide hero several times over. Furthermore, In Fury Born goes back to cover the early career of the protagonist and better organize the universe as a setting for additional series' works, and is the longer of the two novels— detailing topics of great interest in and of themselves up to and including a climactic event in her military career that caused her to retire young, but with great honors and background material such as the political astrography— then segues seamlessly into the original novel presented in virtually unaltered form, excepting only tweaks to some of the background explanations setting up future sequels. The original novel presents her story after she retires from active military duty and has joined her family in migration to a settlement on the frontiers of the governing empire, with mere mentions of the events detailed in the newly added prequel novel. In Fury Born begins with the rearing and military career of the protagonist while Path of the Fury centers around former elite commando Alicia DeVries's quest to attain revenge on the interstellar pirates who killed her family. In the early chapters of the original works, she is rescued and becomes allied with the weakened drifting spirit of Tisiphone, one of the Greek mythological Furies, who in compensation moves into one corner of Alicia's mind and imbues her with some superheroish abilities. The material in the prequel was only alluded to in flashbacks in the original novel.The works are strongly in Weber's military science fiction vein, and its main character not dissimilar to Weber's other strong female protagonists such as Honor Harrington, and numerous technological elements reference other Weber series (such as the bio-implants, also found in the Dahak series).
